I adopted it the third month of the game after taking a one month hiatus in Oct. I did a major overhaul.
I used to play every day constantly for a month. Reset day? 3 night falls. 3 raids. Helping others with nightfall and raids. 3 weeklies. 3 dailies.
Then I got burnt out.
Now I just play until I get bored or until I start getting pissed off. If I hop on Destiny specifically for a gun I don't have, I feel as if I'm hopping on for the wrong reasons.
So I play something else in that free time.
It's kept me sane and still playing. The game, despite its flaws, is still fun. It could just use some TLC from Bungie.
I play almost every night. I love it. But at one point I was getting frustrated my clan mates would get good stuff and not me. I was too focused on rewards. Lost the idea of having fun. Now, I'm having tons of fun and just happy with any drop. Good on ya friend.
